My monitor is 180 htz only anyways. So should I return? 

This means you don't need a better rig as long as you only play that game, which is really not demanding, a potato can play it smoothly 🙂

Now if you want to play more demanding games your CPU will be a bottleneck, imo a 14400 or 14600 are way more future proof as they have 6P cores + some Ecores vs only 4 cores on a 12100

Wait, I just stumbled upon peltier coolers. Should I get one? But It would put a strain on my aio, right?

Not worth much if it even works, just get a decent aircooler

But its like 5 dollars compared to a 30 dollar air cooler.

Make sure to mark solutions, as it helps us find people who need help faster. Thanks!

I am human and am therefore prone to error, so I apologize if I make mistakes and I hope you understand.

Have a Nice Day!

A $5 peltier cooler isn't going to do crap. It will harm more than help. It's been proven many times that they are not great for cpu cooling.
